The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 141 A Sword

Chapter 141: Chapter 141 A Sword

Boom!

Li Yuanba, refusing to show weakness, burst forth with his own momentum. The ground beneath his feet cracked, mud flew into the air, and the wild wind made the clothes of Qin Jun and the other two flap and rustle incessantly.

The two overwhelmingly powerful auras collided like a tornado. A fierce gale rose, dust filled the air, and rolling thunderclouds began to gather, as if a dark cloud was pressing down on the city about to crush it.

Qin Jun couldn’t help but swallow hard. It was the first time he had witnessed a clash between Earth Immortal Realm powerhouses, and naturally, he was uncontrollably excited.

Xu Guiku, being only in the first level of the Earth Immortal Realm, would surely kneel if he fought with Li Yuanba!

"Kill him! How much experience can an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse burst?"

Qin Jun thought excitedly. But to want experience points, first, he needed to provoke hatred from the opponent. He wasn’t sure whether the old man Xu Guiku hated him or not.

"Good lad, do you really want to fight with me?"

Xu Guiku squinted his eyes and asked. Although Li Yuanba’s aura surprised him, he didn’t believe Li Yuanba had broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm.

The Earth Immortal Realm was incredibly difficult to achieve. In the entire Southern Domain, no cultivator under the age of a hundred had broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm!

"Whoever wants to deal with my Highness, I will kill them!"

Li Yuanba said with a ferocious face. The memories implanted by the system made him recall that if it weren’t for Qin Jun’s rescue, he’d have died long ago. Thus, he swore to serve Qin Jun for life and battle across the heavens and earth!

Xu Guiku couldn’t help turning his gaze to Qin Jun, his eyes filled with shock and envy.

It was truly inconceivable that a freak of nature like Li Yuanba could be so wholeheartedly loyal to someone.

"Lord Xu, do you truly intend to pervert justice for personal gain?"

Qin Jun shouted loudly, directly imposing a crime onto Xu Guiku, framing himself as the victim, which made Xu Guiku both angry and amused.

After all, his relationship with Chu Hegn wasn’t deep enough to warrant blaming two geniuses with nine-star evaluations over someone coveting another’s treasures.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it wouldn’t be long before the Seven Major Sects or a royal family reached out to recruit them.

"No matter the reason, you’ve killed someone!"

Xu Guiku said expressionlessly, thinking that he must show Qin Jun and Li Yuanba who’s boss, lest these two youngsters become too unruly.

As soon as he spoke, Li Yuanba’s face became even more ferocious, and he raised his hands—the Golden Peng Divine Hammer appeared in his grasp, the exaggerated shape of the hammer rendered Xu Guiku speechless.

This fool’s temper was just too explosive, wasn’t it?

He was going to suffer for it in the future!

With that thought, Xu Guiku raised his right hand, preparing to teach Li Yuanba a lesson, not aware that he was courting death.

"I leave with a hearty laugh, how can my peers be but mere grass?"

Just in the nick of time, a proud and wild laugh resounded through heaven and earth, and closely following it, a white figure flew in from the horizon. He was tall and straight, dressed in billowing white clothes, a wine gourd hung at his waist, he stood atop a green sword, his hands clasped behind his back, his black hair whipped backwards by the fierce wind, revealing a handsome and arrogant face with a faint stubble around his mouth, his deep eyes seemingly piercing through everything in the world.

The moment this person appeared, Xu Guiku and Li Yuanba instantly tensed, because he did not conceal his aura—first level of the Earth Immortal Realm!

Qin Jun became excited, "Damn, Li Bai is here!"

"I leave with a hearty laugh, how can my peers be but mere grass?"—most descendants of Huaxia had heard this line, it being part of Li Bai’s most arrogant and unrestrained poetry.

A super powerhouse at the first level of the Earth Immortal Realm, damn!

You finally showed up!

Noticing Qin Jun’s excitement, Daji couldn’t help but ask in surprise, "Do you know him?"

At the same time, an idea so unbelievable even she herself was hesitant to accept it arose in her heart: Could it be that this powerful individual was yet another coming to pledge allegiance to Qin Jun?

"Who might you be, sir?"

Xu Guiku stared at Li Bai, who walked on the sword, his face showing utter seriousness.

Little did they know, Li Bai paid no attention to them at all and landed directly in front of Qin Jun, cupping his hands with a smile and saying, "I am Li Bai, styled Taibai, here to offer my allegiance to Your Highness under the command of my master, the Evening Star!"

Silence!

Daji, Li, Li Yuanba, and Xu Guiku were instantly dumbfounded.

An Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse pledging allegiance to a junior from the Golden Elixir Realm?

Xu Guiku suddenly felt his worldview shattering, and he stood there, completely stunned.

"Haha, I’ve long heard of Taibai’s great name. With Taibai’s help today, I feel like a fish in water. Where in this world can I not go?" Qin Jun said, clapping Li Bai on the shoulder with a laugh. Judging from Li Bai’s appearance, he seemed to be around thirty years old, exuding a wickedly charming and carefree aura with every gesture.

Daji couldn’t help but roll her eyes. You’ve said that line who knows how many times. Can’t you come up with something new?

"With Your Highness’s words, Li Bai is willing to serve loyally with the Green Lotus Sword at your side. As long as I live, I vow to keep Your Highness from harm!" Li Bai said with a light chuckle. His words were spoken lightly, yet they resonated powerfully in Qin Jun’s heart.

Damn, it actually moves me a bit!

Having said that, Li Bai turned to look at Xu Guiku in the sky, a smile curling the corners of his mouth as he said coldly, "You wish to capture His Highness? Dare you take one of my swords?"

Faced with such a provocation, Xu Guiku, who was also of a fiery temper, immediately accepted the challenge, "Why wouldn’t I dare!"

Upon hearing this, a smug smile appeared on Li Bai’s face. He turned and swung the Green Lotus Sword upward at Xu Guiku. The earth shook in an instant, an extremely dazzling light burst forth, and Li Yuanba closed his eyes unconsciously. Those standing behind Li Bai, like Qin Jun, were not bothered.

From their angle, the thunderclouds above Xu Guiku’s head were cleaved in two. Sunlight filtered through the gap, while Xu Guiku’s robe burst into shreds, revealing a suit of black iron armor. A white Sword Energy swept towards him like a crescent moon, moving with extreme speed.

Xu Guiku didn’t even have time to react before the Sword Energy pierced his body, and his expression froze instantly.

Shit!

This is a rhythm of instant kill!

Qin Jun almost knelt down, trembling with excitement.

Isn’t Li Bai just at the first layer of the Earth Immortal Realm? How can he instantly kill a peer?

Qin Jun was both puzzled and shocked, but who cares about that, the stronger the better!

Daji, Li, and Li Yuanba were all stunned, never expecting that Li Bai could strike successfully with a single blow.

"Pfft—"

Xu Guiku suddenly sprayed out a blood arrow, but he didn’t fall to the ground. Instead, he hovered in the distance, clutching his chest. His eyes were filled with bloodshot lines as he stared intently at Li Bai.

Li Bai swiftly sheathed his sword and held onto the hilt with his back to the blade, as the strong wind blew, tousling his black hair but unable to hide his proud smile.

"This sword serves as a lesson. Do not trouble my Highness again!"

Li Bai said with a light laugh, but his tone was saturated with murderous intent, chilling to the core.

What dominance!

Qin Jun was beyond thrilled. He had never imagined that the poetry-writing Li Bai, after Becoming a God, could be so formidable. Truly worthy of being a direct disciple of the Evening Star.

Xu Guiku clenched his teeth and then snorted coldly, "I admit defeat this time, but we will fight again next time!"

With that, he extended his right hand and drew the corpse of Chu Hegn into his grasp, then swiftly flew back into the city.

Li Yuanba flew up to Li Bai, took a good look at him, and then said, "Shall we have a fight between us two?"

Pfft!

Qin Jun almost spat out blood, hurriedly holding back Li Yuanba. If this guy got into a killing frenzy, wouldn’t that spoil the harmony?
